Maybe I missed this, how long typically from the ship date, to the dealer? Thank you.

There are several (myself included) that know their 392's are built, but the factory has not released any of them for shipping at the moment. So your guess at the moment is just as good as ours, as far as how long it takes to get to the dealer. I have a crystal ball if you would like to borrow it.

I was told anywhere from 10-15 days once released from the plant. But who knows..

Hey guys & gals, when I was waiting for my Shelby last fall, (it was shipped via railcar), the Ford dealer warned me that it could wait to be loaded onto a train at the storage area for an indefinite amount of time, (sometimes less than a day, and sometimes weeks), because they aren't loaded on the train until they have an entire carload going to the same area.

Along those lines, I came across this in the order build & tracking thread from Nerubi, and thought I'd share it because it sounds like newly built Jeeps go through the same kind of process.

Once past this it will go to storage, JS, to wait for shipping or released by the plant to transport, KZ. When your order originally goes into the system the delivery location is known and the method of shipping is determined at that time. If within 250 mile up to 300 miles of the plant it is usually trucked to the dealer. Further than that it is shipped via railroad. Orders may be sequenced based on location grouping. They sit until there are enough going to the same area to fill a truck or railcar.
A new set of patience is necessary. Jeep does not control this process. They also do not get timely info on the transit location at Jeep Chat. They often give two week windows and change that window frequently. Your dealer should have access to a transit logistics system such as Rubicon VLS (not the same as the Jeep Rubicon) that provides excellent detail especially if by rail. It shows when and where it was loaded in Toledo, the carrier and the ETA to drop. It also updates location, date and time every time the railcar passes an RFID reader with an updated ETA. If your dealer is reluctant to provide this information don't hesitate to push for it.

This doesn't help at all with guesstimating a time frame, but I hope it at least helps provide some clarity with how the process works.

Fingers crossed that these get shipped out soon.
-Rob
